- "From the beginning I knew he wasn't just another kid." - Wayne Bennett
"He is the highest profile, most popular guy in the game, but he is so humble. He speaks to everyone politely, he is really accessible, and he is always willing to help." -- Johnathan Thurston
"I have had the opportunity to coach some exceptional players, but I don't think I have ever seen someone who can read the game as quickly as Locky." -- Craig Bellamy
"He never made a selfish decision." -- Ricky Stuart
"Some blokes lead in very different ways. Lockyer's style is unique to him. It's one of inspiration and gets its strength from the players around him wanting to be around him and wanting to be respected by him...I think it has an enormously powerful style of leadership." -- Phil Gould
"I don't think I've ever really struggled for motivation...fear of failure has always motivated me to complete" -- Darren Lockyer
He was the best ever! I miss him so much, he made the broncos the broncos
The next Immortal. There is just no possible debate about it. He has his name on it. Just hurry up and give it to him and get it over with.
I`m a big Lockyer fan but I just don't think he was talented enough to be an immortal. I think Wally Lewis was a better number 6, and Billy Slater, Greg Inglis and maybe even Jarred Hayne are better full backs. Lockyer was a great bloke and good footballer but no immortal.
You're kidding right...? Lockyer is probably the greatest team leader in league history! And the best number 6 ever
Best number 6 after Wally Lewis.
Greatest team leader?
Hmmmm. Maybe 10th Greatest team leader.
Ocean Runner You serious? Whenever the Broncos were under the pump, Locky never failed to rally them
Yeh. I agree. As far as I'm concerned, he was the second best five eight in the history of the Broncos. One behind Wally Lewis.
Im from sydney and follow brisbane simply because of my love for darren lockyer and the mark he has left on the broncos and NRL.. Sure you can say jarryd hayne is faster bigger and scores more tries but he has had 2 good years in his 5+ years playing. Darren has won multiple premierships led the most succesful origin team for 5 straight years and has been a legend abd respected man. Always fair, always courageous unlike hayne the brat. Lockyer for next immortal, thurston after that.
yes i see where your coming from lockyer is an NRL immortal but thurston... hes alright but hes still - well, he doesnt have a stule. The way he play is just ugly. And f you for saying that jarryd is a brat. He simply is x10 better then johnathan thurston.
jayden sara style*
jayden sara Be surprised if you saw any of his 'stules'. : )
The GREATEST rugby league player I have ever seen. A true legend of the game.
Well said
I`m a big Lockyer fan but I just don't think he was talented enough to be an immortal. I think Wally Lewis was a better number 6, and Billy Slater, Greg Inglis and maybe even Jarred Hayne are better full backs. Lockyer was a great bloke and good footballer but no immortal.
Aaah Locky! To be there for the last game you played for the Broncies v Dragons when you landed that wobbly field goal just out from full time with the fractured cheek - then letting the crowd onto the field - what a memory. The epitomy of grace, courage, athleticism and gentlemanly conduct. LOVE your statue at Lang Park. So glad we've got you as a commentator 'cos we miss you mate! LEGEND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The most respected man in NRL, true legend
darren lockyer a true legend heros come and go but legends are for ever
Wow, I would never have thought an Adele song could match a Darren Lockyer highlights package. This gave me goosebumps, really makes you remember and appreciate how good Lockyer was. He was the best fullback in the world and he became the best 5/8th in the world, 2006 being his magic year. Loved it how in his younger days he could weave and run on 45 degree angles. Lockyer = Legend.
Best backline I seen in any era. League or Union.
1. Billy Slater
2. Folau
3. Justin Hodges
4. Greg Inglis
5. Darius Boyd
6. Lockyer (c)
7. Thurston (c)
9. Cam Smith (c)
All maroons/Kangaroos backline. 2006-2013
Outstanding tribute. Reminded me what a great fullback he was before he became a great five-eighth. And pure class up to the final whistle. Thanks for the memories!
Locky the Legend..One of a kind!
The best player in rugby league history smashed NSW in origin and will never be forgotten it's the Locky show
never seen a sports video with over 10,000 views and no dislikes. proves how much of a champion he is and the respect that everyone has for him. fantastic!
Locky- the reason i started watching league
EXACTLY! HES THE BEST AINT HE!!! :)))))
Danie Conner Theres no one better
That truly is one of the greatest tributes I've ever seen
He dominated the rugby league and achieved everything the game had to offer. A champion in two key positions fullback and fiveeight for Broncos, Maroons and Australia, no other player achieved in rugby league history. Lockyer will be the Greatest Of All Time and there will never be another like him. Thank you for the tribute.
Could any player match him for that elusiveness of movement and slight of step? Don't think so. He read the game better than anyone, graceful as a gazelle, never panicky under pressure and a player's player. None compare to this bloke, who had the game covered in every single aspect - attack, defense, goal kicking, general kicks in play, massive dropouts and long-range field goals that left you with jaw agape. Audacious and brave.
An awesome compilation of video. Well done!
Holy crap. Favourited a million times. That was awesome, I teared up at least three times. I loved all the old school fullback footage.
I have personally met Darren twice, he is a true gentleman, icon and ambassador for the sport, humble, giving and always willing to share. A true Broncos and Qld legend for all ages and all time - having known Wayne Bennett and been involved with his son Justin on a care basis I cannot praise Locky anymore than Wayne himself, I will never forget Wayne’s comments of “Locky being one of a kind, a true league mastermind and great person wrapped up in the one package” Darren is a true legend of league that will never be forgotten among very few immortals. I say this and rate him higher than my great distant relative “Graham (Changa) Langlands” - your one of a kind Locky
Damn how time flys i remember watching every bronco game growing up .... He and alfy were the broncos !
Lockyer, the fairest
, humblest and greatest. He was the living immortal they say.
I don't know a single person that has ever said Darren Lockyer isn't good enough, not only is he one of the best if not the best rugby league player of all time, he is also a true gentleman and a great team leader. I would do anything to be like him. Go Lockyer!!!
Locker wasn't the best player of all time. Inglis, Slater and Hayne are all better fullbacks than Locky was. Wally was a better five eight too. Locky was up there in the top 50 to 100 greats but I wouldn't rate him any higher than that.
Ocean Runner Most caps and tries scored for Australian national team, highest points scorer for Brisbane and NOT once charged by the judiciary in his entire career. Try find me one player who can say they've achieved all those accolades?
Yeh. Hes a great role mode;. I never said he wasn't.
Im a rugby union player and supporter. But have always watched Darren Lockyer and admired such brilliance and grace he played with, then off the field complete gentleman.
made me realise how amazing Darren Lockyer is, amazing video, amazing player :')
One game into the season and already miss watching him play best footy player out KING LOCKY
best player off All time n a great tribute his 2 son's will be able to watch this and see what a great champion there dad was
some how this song manages to justify the video... great work gave me goose bumps and tears at the same time seeing young darren lockyer piercing through opposition defense like a hare... true champion on the field!!!
One of the best ever to hit the game of rugby league and to be such a good role model towards the younger age group, he will always be my favourite player and my favourite role model. Darren Lockyer is the best :)
darren lockyer never be forgotten
Lockyer the absolute GOAT.
+Michael Jacovou .. u idiot .. no fucking idea have ya.. must a blues supporter and butthurt..
Scott, are you on drugs? Do you know what GOAT stands for?
Darren Lockyer the KING !
Best bloke ever! Please come back lockyer
he is the best player hes a legend
The greatest of all time in my opinion
He was equally a great fullback as he was 5/8...awesome goal kicker too
Nothing but respect for that man
We will never find somebody like you Locky!
Lockyer will always be the best player of all time no one was like him. Outstanding player! Outstanding person!!
Awesome video I love Darren
He is a True Legend!!!
never be another Darren Lockyer. Go The Broncos!!!
The best player & captain ever.
thanks for making a grown man cry
this is amazing
i love him so much
No one if memory is correct has ever mastered two key positions in rugby league like Lockyer did during his error. He was the known as the best full back and then the best five eight when he played in those two positions for Broncos, QLD & Australia. Tell me if anyone has done that...not even that racist Andrew Johns..who don't even deserve to honoured as an immortal..the true immortal is Darren Lockyer!
+Nathaniel Nibaidi There is one player? Greg Inglis? He master the centre by representing his state, country and also the aboriginal community there and afterwards made all these same feats at fullback, including a grand final win and a clive churchill medal...
True, i am a huge inglis fan but… i would have to say Lockyer is way better if Greg can play as many games win games etc. he can be known as the best lol. I suck at making sense excuse that lol.
All good I was just saying there is another player who mastered two positions
Sorta like Boyd (Clive Churchill medal as a fullback and multiple rep man of the matches at state and national level)
But Locky is head and shoulders above
+Nathaniel Nibaidi The great Steve Rogers mastered three positions - Rothmans Medal Centre 1975, Dally M Lock 1981, and 5-8 several times inbetween.
are you kidding, we'll never find anyone like Darren Lockyer
So glad I seen him play
gunna miss this legend he has always inspired me to play at my best !!!
3.25 when his drop goal hits both posts and the crossbar to win the game against Gold Coast. Love it!
A true pro, fantastic player.
True G.O.A.T True Bronco
+domenic hofstee and your true fuckwitt .. brain dead as well
+Scott Bryant u brain dead. G.O.A.T stands for greatest of all time....
Jack Hawkins i know that fuckhead..
As a sporting leader of men I'd put this man up with the likes of Roy Keane, John Eales and Martin Johnson. Simply superb, a gifted individual who knew how to inspire and lead his players to be better than they thought they ever could be .
Greatest player to play the game
The GREATEST to ever play the game.
THE MASTER IS DARREN LOCKYER
best video of lockyer ever
what a truly inspirational and amazing video, for a truly amazing rugby player,
darren lockyer "the champion of champions"
DARREN! DARREN! DARREN!!
Nice guy, but down the list a bit when we talk about greats.
in the end thats all that matter really (being nice) you can have everything but if youre a bitch then you really have nothing going for you but fake friends that want all your shit ahha :)
You're right. I think Darren Lockyer was a really nice guy. One thing I really admire about Locky was that he was never a dirty player. He never resorted to any grubby tactics. I was very disappointed with Jonathan Thurston last Origin game when I saw him doing a few cheap shots here and there, something Locky never did. I rate him as one of the nicest blokes in the game.
very true and i agree which is why many players have nothing but good words to say about him, he earnt a lot of respect from every player in the game not just his team mates! :) darren is awesome!
Great video of the best footy player ever move over king wally and hail king locky
Lockyer you LEGEND
Hail to the new King.
Legend. That is all there is to say.
I watch this every week before my match, gets me set up ready
Ok you've done it you've made me cry :(
TRUE LEGEND
1 year has pass and I'm only now starting to feel his absence, especially after watching this video...damn :'(
The king of Rugby League in my generation.
Excellence ❤️
God I miss him
the true king
Bloody Amazing..... made me cry!
My favourite footy player
Best player
Best 5 8 there will ever be😊
best Lockyer video compilation on youtube. Thanks for the up
You will never find someone like Darren Lockyer.
2:35 proves he was better than an immortal.
not a supporter of the broncos but probably the greatest player of my generation
one of the best in the world
I know, but try the best in the world
He was good, but behind Wally as a great five eighth, and behind Slater and Inglis as the best fullbacks. A great bloke though.
Ocean Runner that's tru but he's still the best
Ramsay MacCulloch (y)
..named my dog after him!!:)..legend legend legend!!
Thats gold there good work love the old full back footage
LOCKYER
Awesome video, good work. Sometimes forget how good a fullback he was
the king of suncorp stadium
One does not simply 'Find someone like Lockyer'
Greatest player to have ever played in my opinion and my most favorite ever player. Lets hope the rumors about the cocaine scandal and him being involved aren't true though :/
Damn he was good!
Not a big fan of the adele song, but Lockyer makes up for it... Legend.
2:38 the pass the started QLD's winning streak, lockys a hero
The G.O.A.T. better than johns by far
Great tribute. Locky is the best ever. :)
i love that song I've got 7 jerseys
Best tribute ever
Maybe J.T tribute next
Fittler and johns couldn't carry his Jocks together let alone by themselves
A legend dies, a new one is born. Daly Cherry Evans?
3 NSW fans were here...
Nice tribute, I did need to mute it though and I played R Kelly's I am the greatest song.
2:36
The highest skill is hardly noticed because it shows no trace of effort - so it is with the Tao.
Tao Te Ching.
Same bro :)
